In Me

People come inside me to worship their lord With different kinds of request from their lord For what they asked is unanswerable Because they are asking for the downfall of his truthful Fellow, they come inside me to worship the Lord, for their mind and soul is not in me They asked something from him, but he won't answer They blamed him for not answering Some are callous to the extent that they even stole in me People come inside me to ask for forgiveness of their sin And said to their lord " I won't do it again" Immediately they left, they started escalating their sin For their sin would block their prayers Their prayer can't be answered I can see through their minds and eyes the catastrophe on their ways For I am close to God, I can see through their hearts For I often exchange words with him, I know why their prayers were not answered But the lord did not give me the ability to speak It has become a pain in my mind, for not being able to speak. 30/5/2015.

I thought you spoke most eloquently. If not for the Hypocrites the churches and temples would be mostly empty. Sadly in one way or another all of us fit this discription. Thankfully God is merciful.

Thanks for your worm comment it is appreciated, some people are so desperate to the extent that their aim in the house of God is not good at all. That is why the house of God remonstrated so that they can change.
